Car carrier fire consumes five cars in Delaware

I was a bit slow in picking up the news of this fire. Delawareonline has a video of the fire dept fighting the blaze and this report:

The News Journal • August 13, 2008

  Dang! Hope that guy had decent insurance coverage. Looks like drive tires caught first. Strong argument for having your brakes checked on a regular basis.
